description: "Gad Rausing was a Swedish industrialist and archaeologist. Together with his brother Hans, he inherited the Swedish packaging company Tetra Pak, founded by their father Ruben Rausing, and by 2011, the largest food packaging company in the world by sales. In 1995, Gad bought out his brother's interest in the company in what was at the time the most extensive private buyout in Europe."
